Answer: f(a-2) = 2a² - 14a + 28

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x² - 6x + 8

you can take a-2 and substitute it for each x, which would look like this:

f(a-2) = 2(a-2)² - 6(a-2) + 8

then distribute those in ( )

f(a-2) = 2a² - 8a + 8 - 6a + 12 + 8

combine like terms

f(a-2) = 2a² - 14a + 28

A bag contains 10 marbles:
Len [333]
Total number of marble = 10
3green
2red
5 blue
Probability that the first marble is red = 2/10

Probability that the second is blue = 5/9(a reduction in the total number of marbles, because after the first marble was picked it wasn't replaced)

Probability of 1st and 2nd being red and blue respectively = 2/10 × 5/9
=1/9....

Hope this helped...?

If the straight line passing through A(-7, -5) and B(-3, x) is parallel to another straight line of slope 2, find the value of x
Ostrovityanka [42]
X=3; you can set up a proportion using the slope equation. So (y[sub2]-y[sub1])/(x[sub2]-x[sub1])=2/1 then plug in the values and simplify. Then cross multiply and solve for x. Rest of work shown in the picture

The formula for compound interest

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^ (nt)

A is the amount in the account at the end

P is the principal balance or the amount initially invested

r is the annual interest rate in decimal form

n is the number of times it is coupounded per year

t is the number of years

A = 1800 ( 1+ .0375/1) ^ (1*6)

A = 1800 ( 1.0375)^6

A = 2244.92138

Rounding to the nearest cent

A = 2244.92
